Lots Of Previously Wrecked Cars Being Sold

By Cornelius Nunev


There are a lot of things to be cautious of when shopping for used cars. Never mind knowing which cars are lemons, one also has to watch out for damage. Formerly wrecked cars are being sold on lots countrywide, so be cautious.

Number of formerly wrecked cars on the road is unknown

There is a lot of risk involved when purchasing a used car because automakers only certify them to a certain mileage, and there's not a lot of information about the previous owner generally. Most of them are fine though.

You have to worry about a lot of things in the used car, such as whether or not it was used in a crime, what the service history looks like and where those stains come from. You even have to worry about paying more interest than you would with a new car since the interest rate for a brand new car loan is lower than on a used car loan. Do not forget to be worried about formerly wrecked cars.

About 6 million vehicles got in wrecks and were reported to authorities, about 12 of which were totaled. It is unknown how most are resold after getting fixed. USA Today points out those formerly damaged cars are all over the place.

Not always ideal Carfax

There are a ton of dealerships that sell cars that have been wrecked and redone as salvaged titles. You might end up with one of these without ever getting informed of the issue with the title, which is really crooked to do. Today explained that Carfax and AutoCheck car history corporations can be really helpful in looking at the history of the car, but they are not always entirely accurate, and some accidents may slip by.

During the last 10 years, Carfax has had to purchase 70 automobiles from people because of its guarantee. It promises that if an individual pays for a report and the car ends up being salvaged and resold without being listed on the Carfax report, it will buy the car, according to USA Today.

Laws over it

Finding out data about cars from Brooklyn to San Diego is much easier with the National Motor Vehicle Title Info System, which was passed in 2009 by Congress. The database information can only be bought through Carfax and other vehicle history vendors. The information in the database is reported by different government agencies as well as from insurance corporations and dealerships.

However, as the NVMTIS points out, salvage yards and other parties don't report anything they should, so there won't always be complete data.

When looking for a used car, always watch for signs of ill-fitting paneling and non-uniform paint. These are great signs that body work has been done. Your best bet is just to get an inspection done by a qualified mechanic, according to Today, and you should be safe.
